These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:
AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout County Durham we are encountering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not understanding how to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the car.
Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to start the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would most likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to handle in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases very swiftly.
Remember however that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be completely wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have a fuel container sitting in the rear of your premises with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial properties in County Durham to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we can empty it.
Re-Fueling Assistance
Run out of fuel in High Etherley (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to refill the car. They will be able to fix the standard troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue High Etherley - High Etherley Fuel Rescue
I'd had a wonderful afternoon cycling on my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the next working day as I set off to aid a new couple on vacation in High Etherley. They pulled over after inserting petrol in their Renault, and were around half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself as I heard to the lady telling her husband off for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs constantly in County Durham and that it's truly absolutely nothing to stress about, nonetheless he all the same had an ear bashing by his wife. Unlucky lad. Anyways, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove away I shouted farewell and considered what her indoors would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
